Re: Refusing to nurse because of oversupply.

how frustrating, just when it's supposed to be getting so much easier!

but what, specifically, has changed? is your oversupply worse now than it used to be? is he less patient with it? how were you handling the oversupply before, or is it suddenly new (which would be kind of weird, unless you're doing something to stimulate a lot of milk production like pumping a ton)? is he just distracted?

Re: Refusing to nurse because of oversupply.

Wait, he's 11 months? In your other post you said 11 weeks. I assume there's a typo in one of your posts...

With an 11 week old baby, positioning and timing is often key to dealing with breast refusal. Adopt reclined nursing positions so that gravity will slow the milk flow, and offer to nurse before baby is really hungry (hungry babies often do not have the patience to latch on).
